Thursday,
November 27, 2014: Dave and Jean Schaeffer invited Mark and Paula to Thanksgiving this year. Chef Jean was busy with the turkey when guests arrived. Paula showed up with a huge pumpkin pie and turkey dressing.
|
|
It was time for one of Dave's famous Champaign drinks. Cheers! |
Dave carved the turkey while Jean
poured coffee. |
Turkey dinner with all the trimmings. A terrific feast. |
(l-r) Jean Schaeffer, Mark's place,
but he was taking the photograph, David Crum, Paula, Bonnie Crum, and
Dave Schaeffer. Jean sets a wonderful table. |
All went well including the pumpkin pie with ice cream and
whipped cream. Who could ask for more?
|
David read the poem, "The
Cremation of Sam McGee." It is a hilarious comedy about dying and being cremated in Alaska. |
Then it was out to test the ice on
Gilbert Lake. Mark and Paula were glad to be back on firm ground to report a "thumbs up" on the adventure. |
|
Over the hill and down the lake, |
|
Mark read his "slightly modified" version of Over the River and Through
the Woods. You can see how it came out on the right! A real
crowd pleaser. |
Then it was time for card games.
Jean is fun and Dave can be a shrewd card player. We suspect he is good at poker too. |
|
It was a barrel of laughs all the way around. A wonderful way to spend Thanksgiving. |
Quote of the day: Definitely Thanksgiving fun. Mark | < Back to previous story | Ahead to next story > |
